Drum Tester Up and Running

We have implemented in hardware a way to test for missed hits! We soldered some special components to the drum kit circuit board that will allow us to measure when the drum kit sees a hit and when it misses. We then hooked those components up to a dsPIC chip and are able to monitor just about everything going on in the system to within about 1800 nanoseconds. We are going to spend a day or two calibrating the system, and then we can capture data all day long.
